The Rumors

Kalden closed his eyes. He was in the bathtub.  i don't know how long it has been. The pungent fragrance wafted out. There were countless red rose petals in the bathtub. The white bathtub water mixed with milk hit Kalden's body, he still closed his eyes, his index finger tapping on the tiles of the beautiful bathtub.

His eyes opened and a dark and terrifying violet color was seen. The tapping of his index finger paused and Kalden recalled the face of Duke Balham who stopped him walking just now. 

Duke Balham is a friend of Chris, maybe he has a grudge against Kalden who managed to kill Chris. The massacre was actually spread so excitedly; the people were booming

Kalden, which is the wings of the empire, got another unofficial nickname, namely the bloody monster. Kalden was not angry at all by the rumors spread about him, even those who said that he would eliminate the person who had conflicted with him were also Kalden was not angry at all.

Now that he stood up, his well-trained muscles were very well visible from the moonlight coming in through the open glass window. He looked out, looking towards the moon as if he was challenging him. 

With a gentle movement, Kalden took a kimono towel, put it on and sat on his sofa without wearing a shirt. 

His evil thoughts were playing, but he was still looking for the right time to do it. 

Doesn't he also have a position that is important to the empire?

So, Kalden considered the matter. 

His right hand touched his forehead when he tilted his head, and it was the hand that held the weight of his head. 

"Wait there." 

Kalden spoke in a terrifying, impersonal voice, even though the person at the door of his room hadn't said anything yet. 

Kalden knows who is there, and troublesome things will happen again. He has not yet returned to Oriesdett Country, it still exists in the center of the empire and is in his own mansion. 

It is common for nobles to have a mansion in almost every region; it makes it easier for them to move around. 

Kalden unscrewed his own hair until the remaining water droplets fell. 

"Come in." 

Shye walked straight in after hearing what Kalden said. He saw the master was sitting leisurely on the dark sofa. The light in his room was very minimal and very in line with Kalden. 

It's strange that this huge room feels cold. Shye always felt cold with Kalden. 

"Count, I got the news that around our mansion there has been a murder, and people say it's your doing." 

"Hmmm." Kalden responded coldly. 

Rumors that didn't scare him at all. He thought it was too childish for him who, as the imperial wings, did such a low thing. 

"Count, the murder looks unusual." Shye again reported. He looked uncomfortable and tried to stay calm. 

"Why? They died upside down?" 

Kalden spoke indifferently, he once did that on the Battlefield as a form of warning to the enemy. He considered the tuk of the captives. He was jealous of the painful. way, the wounds he gave did not make the captives die instantly, but they died slowly until their blood dried up and they experienced a very painful death.

"No, Count. But some parts of their bodies are missing." 

Kalden's eyes winked when Shye had said that. There is another lunatic who wants to rival Kalden's madness. 

Not bad. 

Naturally, people point the finger at him as the perpetrator in this crime. But it's so low. 

"Count, if this is the case the rumors will get bigger and you will be looked at badly."

"Shut up, Shye. There is nothing to deal with immediately. In the absence of that problem, I have been bad." 

Kalden stood up. The large window that brought in the bright moonlight into his room made Kalden's existence look so shining. His black hair, as well as his pale skin, is a bit like a nightmare wrapped in beauty. 

Shye took a sip of his own spit. Indeed, what Kalden said is absolutely true. No matter where and no matter what Kalden does, people always see Kalden as the worst among the worst.

Kalden looked out, a gigantic tree with an enormous shadow seemed to creep towards him, and Kalden folded his hands in front of his chest, looking casually with a ridiculous thought. 

"Just leave them alone."

Shye nodded his head slowly. He couldn't do anything if it was a decree from his master. 

"Okay, Count." 

Shye came out of Kalden's room, since he was with Kalden, his master was a nobleman who was very indifferent to the public's view of his. 

He is an existence that has its own beliefs, which are terrifying and elusive. 

**

Kalden ate his still red steak quietly. Shye was beside him and the servants were on the edge, far away from his place to eat. They were there because they were preparing if Kalden needed anything, then they would immediately help Kalden. 

The red liquid came out of the steak that Kalden cut, and the pieces he cut very neatly entered his mouth. Kalden's mouth moved slowly, chewing, and crushing the steak. 

A commotion sounded, and Kalden's eyes twitched because of it. Those in the room couldn't hear what Kalden was with. But Shye saw the small twitch in Kalden's eyes. 

"Tell them to shut up." 

Shye disappeared directly from there, he was outside Kalden's mansion, and there was no commotion in the mansion. But when he was outside the fence of the mansion, Shye saw the intimacy of people a hundred meters away from the fence. 

"Murder again."

They spoke excitedly, and Shye who had approached, saw what was in front of him. 

The ears of the fat man in front of him have disappeared, and Kalden knows it related this to the rumors that he only told Kalden last night. 

"You guys keep away from here, I'm the knight of the Oriesdett family and will take over for this matter." 

Shye spoke firmly to make these people less noisy. They had since also said Kalden's name which made their noisy voices heard by Kalden. 

"People from Oriesdett, I think they are the murderers."

"Shut up. They're nobles…" 

They talked to each other quietly and whispered with a look in their eyes full of contempt. 

Shye was silent, he had told them to stay away because they could have lost their lives. 

"What is the knighthood chief Oriesdett here for? I'm sure that the imperial dog doesn't deal with this kind of murder problem, or there are things that the public really doesn't want to know." 

A brown-haired man came out of a black horse-drawn carriage, his brown skin and a sword with a horse symbol have explained his identity. 

He who takes care of the security in the city center is said to be the imperial police or the so-called dark horse army.

"Dogs can bite horses instead of that, Marquis Ambergard." 

Kalden spoke very coldly, his all-black clothes and his violet eyes instantly attracted all the attention towards him. 

The residents who were there finally saw his figure, which is often talked about,.
